DS development > M3SD Write Support (chishm library or other)

#73186 - VanillaIcee - Thu Feb 23, 2006 9:11 pm

I'm going to just throw this out there, as I think I already know the answer:

Has anyone written code, either C or assembly, that can write to a M3SD?

The answer is probably no, but I wanted to make sure before I start development of my own code.

PS: If anyone wants to post links here with M3SD reference, such as register definitions, etc., go ahead

Download the sdk. In the specs folder you have a detailed description of ms3d and milkshape ascii format. Are you going to do a ms3d editor?

M3SD != MS3D

M3SD = GBA Movie Player v3 with Secure Digital card slot

This is what happens when someone has been working for two weeks on ms3d. That you see ms3d everywhere.

Haha yeah that can happen easy....mhmh so writing to m3SD is still a pb... But reading? i eman u could start our project just with reading out files first... i mean dont know hwat ur target it but...it would be easier to start first with that.. perhaps chism dism makes a new version of his fat lib soon.... i hope.. Ok i got SC SD but i want for my projects that anyone can use it..

You just have to register on the forum to be allowed to download anything. It'll take you 5 minutes max.

it is a link to the fmsx DS using what appears to be a stripped version of what was used in moonshell, with writes disabled for M3SD (although the write code is there I think it is not working yet)

#74026 - VanillaIcee - Wed Mar 01, 2006 9:09 pm

Nah, the code is still commented out.

Anyone know why the code doesn't work? Does it create corrupt files?

#74800 - cory1492 - Tue Mar 07, 2006 8:49 pm

When I tested it, it worked but I was only able to tell with a disk hex editor (winhex) since it erased the FAT and bootstrap (windows does not see the device at all as it is not formatted)
